Camellia Rose Ann is a large, upright, evergreen shrub with shiny dark green foliage and beautiful, double, deep rose-pink blooms. The flowers appear from late summer through to winter.

Lightly trim Rose Ann to shape in spring and feed with a specific camellia fertiliser or a complete organic fertiliser.

Camellia Elegans Champagne harkens back to the Age of Elegance. A classic, late-flowering camellia, Elegans Champagne will delight with gently ruffled double white flowers with cream centres.

With its dense, deep green foliage, Elegans Champagne is perfect for hedging, topiary, feature planting, and container planting. Like all camellias, Elegans Champagne can be pruned fairly hard if required.

Soil: Plant in well-drained soil prepared with mulch.
Conditions: Sunny or partly shaded position with morning or afternoon sun. Shelter from strong winds and exposed sites. Tolerates drought and frost once established.
Size: Height 2m x width 1.8m
